Opera have released a beta version of Opera Mobile for S60 smartphones. Sporting the same user interface as the recently updated Opera Mini, Opera Mobile provides an alternative browser to that built into the majority of handsets, and first impressions on the beta are good. Highlights include an easy to navigate tabbed browsing experience, a number of thumbnails cropping up to aid navigation, and a lot of performance tweaks. Read on for more.

There's no T9 on this so I'd still have to stick to the default browser for text heavy browsing like replying to forum comments. My only concern is, this beta from Opera took years to come, I wonder how long would they take to release an update.

I feel your pain, Nokia people. I just went into about:config and changed ram and disk cache setting from funny 2-5MB to 8-16MB for (docs, figures, svg) bringing total ram cache to around 40MB. And I still have not had out of memory errors. Oops. I have Omnia HD i8910. Sorry folks.

I own an N82. I haven't seen an out of memory either. Don't try to be smug like the i-boys, your phone is nothing more than a Nokia manufactured by a third party.

On another note, I just took it through the acid3 test. Here's what I found.
